Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Visual Studio Code

In our organization we use Visual Studio Code everyday. I can work on multiple files by splitting the editor in two tabs as opposed to having different windows open and it is very useful. There are many plugins and extensions available in this IDE. I use it to develop small and large projects. Specially when working with React project. Its free and easy to understand.
  • Helps in writing code efficiently
  • Great for HTML editing
  • Easy to write and Debug JAVA scripts
  • Live server plugin sometimes hangs.
  • Ubuntu support is not very good. It doesn't work properly.
  • It is mainly used for back-end development. It should also support front-end technologies.
  • Visual Studio Code is free and and the user interface is also very good. It is the best software for web development in the market. We have made e-commerce websites using visual code and we are currently working on more projects using HTML, CSS, Javascript languages in Visual Studio Code Editor.
  • It's light weight, merely 50 MB in Linux still very powerful in terms of file searching, code formatting.
  • VS Code Git integration is superb, I am in love with this feature, line by line code difference and Git UI interface makes version management amazingly fast.
  • Default intelligence for JS, TS and many more languages.
If you are working on Node.js, this is a must-have tool. Any HTML editing can be done with this tool.
